Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 787 - 786: A Sigh of Relief

Zhen Yu immediately frowned upon hearing this! Just as she was about to ponder carefully, the real estate agent suddenly said, "Oh right! Why are you heading back? It’s about to get dark! If you’re taking the subway, let’s go together!"

Zhen Yu shook her head, "You go ahead! I need to wait here for my boyfriend! He’ll be here in ten minutes."

Upon hearing this, the real estate agent instantly smiled with relief and then said her goodbyes to Zhen Yu right there and then.

As soon as she left, Zhen Yu realized that she was the only one left standing awkwardly alone at the entrance of the Housing Authority, being scrutinized by passersby, which was terribly embarrassing.

So Zhen Yu quickly left and went to a conspicuous spot by the roadside to make it easier for Han Mingyue to find her.

Then, she started to walk back and forth along the curb out of boredom...

About five minutes later, a black SUV slowly approached the Housing Authority and gradually pulled up beside Zhen Yu.

Beep-beep—beep—

Zhen Yu, who was kicking a small stone with her head down, quickly looked up! Her instincts told her that the car was honking at her.

"Han," Zhen Yu thought it was Han Mingyue who had taken a taxi and seen her, and so had the driver honk to call her!

But what she didn’t expect was to see a familiar black car!

A second later, just as Zhen Yu quickly remembered that the owner of the car was Chairman Li, the car window was rolled down.

"Why are you still here? Get in!"

As soon as she heard what was being said, a stream of thoughts dashed through Zhen Yu’s mind!

"This is an expert! A real pro..."

"He didn’t ask about the earlier excuse from the real estate lady, nor did he ask why she was alone now, that Emotional Quotient... outstanding!"

"The art of language lies in how to strike up a conversation and cozy up! Who would believe that Chairman Li would just drive her straight back to Beijing University! Everything he says is just a ploy! Perhaps he would drive straight to a restaurant and invite her to a meal..."

"Indeed! 99.9% of all such ’chance’ encounters in this world are premeditated! Otherwise, how could he have come back? He probably even has his excuses ready..."

—

Seeing that Zhen Yu didn’t react at all to his words, Chairman Li, after a few seconds, had no choice but to speak again.

"Get in the car! What are you standing around for, it’s quite cold outside!"

Zhen Yu: "Heh!"

Although her laughter was brief and faint, Chairman Li still heard it.

So he immediately frowned!

He looked as if he had inadvertently revealed some superior’s air, and then he emphasized with an unquestionable tone, "It’s not safe for a girl to be alone outside so late! Hurry up and get in! I’ll take you home!"

If it wasn’t for Zhen Yu having witnessed the warmth and hardships of the world in two lifetimes! If it wasn’t for the previous abrupt reminder from the real estate lady, akin to a Sichuan opera face-changing act! Upon hearing words like those of Chairman Li, who seemed to be considering her perspective, maybe Zhen Yu might really have believed him...

Alas, he had found the wrong person this time.

Zhen Yu was not an inexperienced young girl!

So she didn’t even muster a smile and just politely declined, "No need! Thank you! You go on your way!"

"Hiss!" As that sucking sound ensued, Chairman Li suddenly started to unbuckle his seatbelt and while doing so, he said, "Why can’t you understand what I’m saying..."

And through the fully lowered car window, Zhen Yu could clearly see this scene...

So her subconscious first reaction was - "Damn! Is he planning to act out the domineering CEO trope? Dragging her into the car?"

Her second reaction was - "Dodge it! If she didn’t dodge, was she waiting for him to start pulling and dragging her around?"

What if she happened to run into Han Mingyue right at that moment? Wouldn’t that be awful?

Realizing the situation, Zhen Yu immediately turned around and hurried towards the direction of the Housing Management Bureau entrance! While walking, she kept looking back over her shoulder...

Then, she suddenly bumped into someone’s arms.

When the familiar scent filled her nose, Han Mingyue’s rich bass voice also timely reached Zhen Yu’s ears.

"What’s going on?!" Han Mingyue, who had rushed over, couldn’t immediately grasp the situation, but he saw that there was clearly something unusual happening behind Zhen Yu!

So after pulling her tightly into his arms, he took advantage of his height, his eyes directly looking over the top of her head to see what was happening behind her!

Upon looking, he happened to meet Chairman Li’s eyes directly!

A young man, a middle-aged man.

After a few seconds of eye contact, Chairman Li neatly turned around and drove away.

Only then did Han Mingyue pat Zhen Yu, who was still leaning into his arms, and softly said in her ear, "He’s gone."

But Zhen Yu still clung tightly to his waist! She just responded without lifting her head, "Oh."

Han Mingyue pursed his lips, "Who is he?! Just now,"

Zhen Yu suddenly looked up! And couldn’t wait to confess, "He’s that guy selling the villa!"

"!!" Han Mingyue was obviously a bit startled!

Because only after several seconds did he continue to ask, "...And what did he want just now?"

"He’s nuts!" Zhen Yu had been holding her breath for too long! But she had to keep up appearances in front of others! Now, facing Han Mingyue, it felt like she had found an outlet, and she couldn’t help but vent all at once.

"It looked as if he wanted to give me a ride back to Beijing University! But who knows what he was really up to! I already said I didn’t need it! But he insisted on making me get into the car! Look at his overdone getup! Wearing a full suit in the dead of winter trying to look cool, why didn’t it freeze him to death! Plus, just look at his deadpan face! I bet he uses this tactic to pick up girls all the time! How else would he think it’s foolproof?! And also! He should really look at himself in the mirror! Why is his face so big?! He’s already down to selling houses! And he has the nerve to offer a ride back to school to the person who bought his house! Who gave him the face? As someone who can afford a villa, would I not be able to afford a cab?! Really, pfft..."

Because she suddenly became self-conscious of her image in front of Han Mingyue, Zhen Yu ended up changing her tone at the last "B" word.

However, her long list of complaints suddenly laid out in the open still shocked Han Mingyue!

He really didn’t expect it! His girlfriend, usually not very talkative, was simply silent - but now he realized all the things that should be said and shouldn’t be said were all stored up inside her! Now she truly revealed herself with an outburst... In just this short amount of time, her little mouth didn’t stop moving, and she must have insulted that man at least ten times!

And each insult was unique...
